Feature added by: Dirk Mueller (dirkmueller) Feature #309088, revision 1 Title: zsync support for update channel refresh openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Dirk Mueller (dirkmueller) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: For every released maintenance update, the repodata/primary.xml.gz file grows by a bit (depending on the number of dependencies etc for every released package). To smoothen updater-experience and reduce the amount of data that has to be download for an update-repo refresh, the diff of the file should be downloaded by using zsync. In addition the repo-channel generation script has to run zsyncmake and gzip --rsyncable. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: With openSUSE 11.2, the primary.xml.gz size grows by 1.1MB for every released kernel, and currently the file has to be downloaded completely upon every change (due to xml.gz compression). -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309088
